Absolutely correct. A doctor friend asked me 40 years ago what I thought of George Will, way back when he was thought ultra-conservative. I said, he’s really a liberal. And too liberal for me.

[TheCipher]

He’s still alive ?

Georgie should read up on what happened to intellectuals when the Communists took over in Russia. They were sent to the gulags, never to be heard from again.

[Sirius Lee]

Your post is perfect!

The answer is simple: George Will is a petty man. He’s used to being able to comment on others without having to actually DO anything responsible to improve the country. He’s a talker....not a doer.

In recent years, I’m sure that George has gotten an earful from people like those who post on this message board. They used to respect him, but now find him to be no better than a bitter, pathetic man with very little intellectual ammo left.

He's a phony and always has been. His pose as a "conservative" is the same as all the RINOs who act conservative during election time but are basically republicrats the rest of the year. Will merely played the role of pompous/erudite Buckley wannabe commentator.

His problem with Trump is that Trump is an outsider who actually want to get things done rather than act a part in a Kabuki play.

WHAT YOU SAID!

Fascism is socialism de facto. Fascists are the destroyers of natural rights, freedom, limited government, and sovereignty of the people. Trump is the destroyer of the destroyers.

[Ted Grant]

He thinks he’s smarter than everyone else so when we rejected his worldview, the only emotional play he had left was to diminish those that rejected his way of thinking.

This is punctuated by President Trump’s successes and there being no notable popular desire to return to Will’s way of doing things.

He fancies himself an intellectual but his whole posture is deeply emotional. We hurt his feelings and he wants us to know who’s boss.

[Kaslin]

George won’t what?

[Starboard]

His problem? 40 years living in Washington. You don’t do that unless you like big government.

**************

Yep, by now he has permanent membership in the DC Club.

He’s an entrenched swamp denizen just like the rest the corrupt DC inhabitants. He probably hasn’t put one foot outside the Beltway in the last 30 years.

[Kaslin]

You said it.

[1Old Pro]

George Will starting digging this hole when he joined the ABC News show and hasn’t stopped in all those years.

[Kaslin]

Excellent point

[Georgia Girl 2]

George Will is not a conservative. He’s a constipative.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

George’s columns have become one long liberal sneer.

[joethedrummer]

Bingo!

[Ann Archy]

Hes an ATHEIST......period.

[old-ager]

I thought he died.

Never Trumper Is His Problem
